OK Rider Meet and Greet

Destination: Blanchard

Miles logged: 170ish

Headed out to Blanchard for a Meet and Greet with some other Okie riders. Had some awesome food, drinks, and company. Hope to do it again soon. Got off to a late start, and stopped in Apache. Kind of lollygagged a bit... Which kind of made us a tad bit late...like an hour.

So on the way there we saw this totally cool old fire truck:

On the way back, we got on HWY 8. Hadn't been on it in a while. Nice hill country, and two fun sweeper curves that would be a blast to ride when there's day light to see through the turn.

Going through Verden, it's best to watch that you stay at the 35mph speed limit.

Lake Altus

Destination: Altus

Miles Logged: 150ish

Another beautiful January Sunday in Oklahoma. The sun's out (well, kind of), so it's time for a ride.

After about 10 miles, the sun began to waiver, and once the Quartz Mtns were in sight, the sun was replaced by a haze. Would have gone exploring, but someone couldn't take another minute without a hot cup of coffee. The things I forgot to pack...

On the way back, I totally copped out and hit a boring hwy. At least for a few miles. I think it's time to invest in some nice warm gloves for next winter.

"I've been to Nowhere, OK."

And, yes, there is a T-shirt. No, I did not buy it. I know, I know. Shame on me.

Destination: Nowhere

Miles Logged: 88ish

Rode out through Apache to Fort Cobb, Nowhere, and Fort Cobb State Park. Heading back, went west on HWY 9 to Carnegie, and hit HWY 115 back to Meers. It was pretty chilly and a long coffee break was certainly called for.

At the Lake Fort Cobb, there were literally thousands of geese. Family Reunion, or something... I honestly cannot remember a whole lot from this ride. All I remember is that it was extremely COLD!!! Someone came across my blog by searching for "weird things at the bottom of Lake Fort Cobb." Hm. Maybe I should do some research because curiosity just killed my "I don't really care" cat.

This blog is brought to you by the lovely (biased opinion, we know) Stone Turtle – Lodging, a small family owned and operated hotel / lodging business near Lawton, Oklahoma, Fort Sill,  the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge, Meers and Medicine Park. Yeah, that’s right we’re a small lodging business close to all the awesomeness Oklahoma has to offer!!

2011

The Beginning of another awesome year!

Got to kick off 2011 right, so a ride was called for. I only managed to convince one other rider to join me. It was a beautiful day out. The sun was shining and for some odd reason there was very little wind. Perfect for a ride. Granted, it was a tad bit chilly...

Rode out through Lawton, Cache, the Refuge, and up Mt. Scott.

Can't wait to see what adventures 2011 has in store for Blueberry and me.
